EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1870s, showcases a remarkable gathering of three distinct species of charr native to the waters of Windermere in England: Windermere Charr (Salvelinus willoughbii, also known as Willoughby's Char), Coles Charr (Salvelinus colii), and Grays Charr (Salvelinus grayi). The image, dated 1879, offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of these intriguing fish species during the Victorian era. The Windermere Charr, the largest of the three, is easily identified by its silver sides, black back, and distinct orange spots. Coles Charr, on the other hand, boasts a more muted color palette, with a grey back and silver sides, while Grays Charr displays a darker, almost black appearance. Each species is named after the individuals who first described them, reflecting the rich scientific heritage of the time. The discovery and documentation of these charr species during the late 19th century contributed significantly to the understanding of the diverse aquatic life in Windermere and beyond. This photograph serves as a testament to the natural beauty and scientific curiosity that characterized the Victorian era. The clear waters of Windermere, with their unique inhabitants, continue to captivate visitors and researchers alike, making this image not only a historical record but also a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world.
